Saddiq Bey News, Rumors, Updates - Washington Wizards

Agrees to deal with Wizards Bey has agreed to a three-year, $20 million contract with the Wizards, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Impact Bey is coming off a down year in which he converted a career-low 31.6 percent of his three-point attempts across 63 games with the Hawks, but maybe a change of scenery will help him rediscover his sharpshooting ways. Unfortunately, he's still rehabbing from an ACL tear that he suffered in March, so it's unlikely he'll be ready for the start of the 2024-25 season.

Will become a free agent The Hawks are not expected to deliver a qualifying offer to Bey (knee), and he will become an unrestricted free agent, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Impact Bey tore his ACL on March 10 against the Pelicans, cutting what could potentially be his final season with the Hawks short. The 25-year-old appeared in 63 regular-season games for the team last season, during which he averaged 13.7 points, 6.5 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 0.8 steals across 32.7 minutes. While he will not be ready for the start of the 2024-25 season, Bey will likely garner interest around the league as he looks to return for the latter part of the season.

Gets ACL surgery Bey underwent successful surgery March 27 to repair the torn ACL in his left knee.

Impact Given that recoveries from ACL tears for basketball players can often take between 8-to-12 months, Bey is likely to be sidelined for at least the early part of the 2024-25 season. The knee injury comes at a particularly brutal time for Bey, who was set to become a free agent this summer and will now likely be in store for a much less favorable contract on the open market. Before suffering the season-ending injury, Bey averaged 13.7 points, 6.5 rebounds, 1.8 three-pointers, 1.5 assists and 0.8 steals in 32.7 minutes per game over his 63 appearances for Atlanta.

Suffers ACL tear, out for season Bey suffered a torn left ACL and is out for the remainder of the season, ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reports.

Impact This is a massive blow to the Hawks, and the timing for Bey is awful as he's set to hit restricted free agency this summer. He'll end the campaign with 63 appearances and averages of 13.7 points, 6.5 rebounds, 1.5 assists and 1.8 three-pointers on 41.6 percent shooting from the field. Bey's absence will open up a lot of minutes in Atlanta, and guys like Garrison Mathews, Bogdan Bogdanovic and De'Andre Hunter could have more opportunities going forward.

Impact Bey exited early in the fourth quarter in obvious pain, so his status will be worth keeping a close eye on over the next couple of days as Atlanta heads into a three-game week. Prior to the injury, Bey started and played 27 minutes, finishing with 14 points (3-11 FG, 3-8 3Pt, 5-6 FT), five rebounds and two assists.

Paces Atlanta in scoring Saturday Bey totaled 23 points (8-14 FG, 2-6 3Pt, 5-5 FT), three rebounds and two assists in 35 minutes during Saturday's 114-102 loss to the Nets.

Impact Bey led the Hawks in scoring and was the only player who surpassed the 20-point mark for Atlanta, but his contributions were not enough to secure the victory. Bey has been relegated to a secondary role on offense in recent weeks, but this was the first time he reached the 20-point mark since Feb. 10. He has also surpassed the 15-point plateau in three of his five appearances following the All-Star break.

Pops for 18 against Raptors Bey provided 18 points (6-15 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds and one assist over 34 minutes during Friday's 123-121 loss to Toronto.

Impact The fourth-year forward just missed his ninth double-double of the season. Bey appears to be blossoming in Atlanta -- he's scored in double digits in seven straight games, and 12 straight if you don't count a Feb. 2 tilt against Phoenix that he left early due to a minor ankle injury. In those 12 contests, Bey is averaging 18.3 points, 7.6 boards, 2.3 threes and 2.1 assists.

Double-doubles in win Bey closed with 18 points (4-11 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 8-8 FT), 11 rebounds, one assist and one steal in 34 minutes during Friday's 127-121 victory over Philadelphia.

Impact Bey delivered his eighth double-double of the season, scoring at least 18 points for the third straight game. After a two-point dud against the Suns, Bey has found his rhythm, providing serviceable 12-team value over that time. He is likely to be on the fringes of 12-team leagues for the remainder of the season, depending on whether you are prioritizing points and threes.

Leading scorer in Wednesday's loss Bey amassed 25 points (9-16 FG, 4-7 3Pt, 3-4 FT), nine rebounds, one assist and one steal in 36 minutes during Wednesday's 125-117 loss to the Celtics.

Impact The former Piston led the Hawks in scoring on a night when Trae Young had trouble getting his shot to fall against Boston's defense and Dejounte Murray (back) was in street clothes. Bey's production remains erratic -- twice in the last nine games, he's scored two points or less -- but the fourth-year forward has in general been a solid complementary piece for Atlanta, averaging 14.4 points, 6.6 boards, 1.6 assists and 1.6 threes over his last 16 contests.

Scores 18 points Bey chipped in 18 points (5-8 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 5-5 FT), five rebounds and one steal across 33 minutes during Monday's 149-144 loss to the Clippers.

Impact Bey returned from a one-game absence due to an ankle issue and looked very sharp for the Hawks. De'Andre Hunter's minutes are expected to ramp up which could potentially impact Bey, but the Hawks could also utilize a lot of smaller lineups in the absence of Clint Capela (adductor) which could benefit both Bey and Hunter.
